Play It Again Sam? Oh Dear...

Lincoln City FC have embarked on their mini-tour of
Germany this week, but one player has decided to stay at
home.
That player is Sam Mullarkey, who is currently out of
contract. The Official Lincoln City website is stating
that Mullarkey has now departed the club after declining
an offer to undertake pre-season training in Germany
Whether Mullarkey's decision is correct is open to much
criticism as the player hardly featured for The Imps last
season - his one and only season at Sincil Bank. He
obviously feels that he can obtain regular first team
football elsewhere - maybe he can but it is doubtful that
he will gain it at a Football League club.
Perhaps Mullarkey was frustrated with his lack of
opportunity to play in his correct position of striker.
Instead, Lincoln City manager Peter Jackson deployed
Mullarkey as a winger, which was not his best position.
In total, Mullarkey played 18 times for Lincoln, but only
seven of these were starts. He managed just one goal,
albeit a spectacular one, in his Imps career, which came
at home to Notts County.
Mullarkey's departure leaves Lincoln with just three
professional strikers on their books: Jamie Clarke, Chris
Fagan and Lenell John-Lewis.
